I disagree with the last statement penned by the author. There are honest, dedicated and qualified persons on both sides. Leaders in the persons of Dr. Lewis, Dr. Raymond, Emma, Alvina, Dr. Anthony, Musa,Pierre and Dr. Long demonstrate signs of integrity and dedication to true governance of this country. Others on the other side include Dr. Rigobert and Ms. Compton-Antoine.

It is time that those individuals and others at large see a need to merge all of their talent together to create a better St. Lucia for all.

Some of the choicest leaders--Drs. Anthony, Raymond and Rigobert have more to gain outside St. Lucia but they are here. We need to honor all those persons whose interests are to serve the people, and not themselves.

Another choiced leader is Dr. Plummer. I am looking forward to the day when she will throw her hat in the political ring.

No oneelse in the political arena is matched with the qualifications of those individuals. But most importantly, I think they can put the interests of the people before theirs.

It is my hope that St. Lucians and the group of envious folks who see nothing else but to trash educated folks will rise up to the call of surrounding ourselves with the very best policymakers. Effective policymaking, by the way, requires intelligence and education...food for thought.
